Acts 27:21-26

²¹It was then, when they had gone a long time without food, that Paul came forward, and said, “My friends, you should have listened to me, and not have sailed from Crete and so incurred this injury and damage.

²²Yet, even as things are, I beg you not to lose courage, for there will not be a single life lost among you — only the ship.

²³For last night an angel of the God to whom I belong, and whom I serve, stood by me, and said —

²⁴‘Have no fear, Paul; you must appear before the Emperor, and God himself has given you the lives of all your fellow voyagers.’

²⁵Therefore, courage, my friends! For I believe God, that everything will happen exactly as I have been told.

²⁶We will, however, have to be driven on some island.”
